AN: Hello, I have the next chapter here. Here we have another Tag Duel chapter featuring the two of the greatest characters to come out of Arc-V. This was a lot of fun to make, but be warned, the dialogue here is a lot more…implied due to who is speaking. Still, this I think is one of the best tag duels and one of my favorites to write. Hope you enjoy this chapter, leave a review with your comments and questions, and have a nice day.

See Datasheet Chapter for cover art details.

Chapter 53 – The Twins Pt2

Blake walked through the woods, keeping an eye out for anything. She then looked over at a tree, seeing a red dot on it, "…" she walked over to the dot, placing her hand on it. However, the dot moved at the last second, "…" the shadowy Obelisk Blue tried to hit the dot again but could not. Her rage built as she continued to hit the dot and eventually did. Suddenly, she realized it was just a light. Blake then turned around to see Yang holding a laser pointer with a smirk on her face.

"Hello." Yang slightly sang.

"What are you doing?" Blake asked, putting her hand down.

"Just messing with you." Yang said as she turned off the laser pointers, "Can't believe this worked?" she said before Blake took the laser pointer out of her hand, "Relax, I just thought I would catch up with you and give you something for good luck." She said before reaching into her deck box, "It's a card from the stack Ruby gave us, but I think it helps you a bit more than-"

"Quiet," Blake cut off Yang, who had a slight scowl. However, the fiery Ra Yellow listened as well as they heard something in the distance, "Someone's screaming." The shadowy Obelisk Blue said as Yang nodded, causing the two girls to run towards the noise.

They arrived at the sight of a just finished duel. There, two Obelisk Blue girls were on their knees in defeat. One had grey hair and the other was a lighter brown. Standing across from them were the Tyler Sisters, each with a sinister smirk on their faces, "What a boring warmup duel." Gloria spoke, "That was hardly enough to get my blood pumping."

"Yeah, I almost fell asleep," Grace said after a yawn, then looked back at the girls with a snide smile, "If this was Obelisk Blue's best, then I think you girls should get used to that position for a while." She said before seeing Blake and Yang nearby, "Oh, it looks like we have some more warmups on the way." However, the two went over to the Obelisk Blue girls.

"Are you okay," Blake asked the grey-haired girl, "You're Mindy, right?" she then turned to the brown-haired girl, "And you're Jasmine. Alexis told me about you two."

"Yeah," Jasmine said before recoiling in pain.

"It hurts," Mindy said as she held her side as well.

"It'll be okay, the academy is not far, can you walk back there?" Blake said before the two girls nodded, "Good," she said before glancing back at the Tyler sisters, seeing the duel disks they had, "Those are the same model Yuri has, making the damage a lot more real."

"Hey, don't ignore me!" Grace called out, "I was talking to you party crashers." Yang turned to them with a scowl, her eyes red, "Oh, this one has spunk."

"Spunk, yes." Gloria added, "But brains, no. She looks to just be a Ra Yellow."

"I'm the Strongest Ra Yellow at Duel Academy." Yang clarified.

"Heh, even the prettiest donkey is still a donkey." Grace responded, "Why don't you run along now and chew some grass?" she said as Yang loaded her deck into her arms, "Oh, suit yourself." Grace said as she turned on her duel disk, causing the energy blade to form, "This is going to be good."

"Agreed dear sister," Gloria added as she readied her duel disk, "Two against one means we get to have a lot of fun with her."

"It won't be two against one," Blake said as she stood up as well, "We're going to fight together." She said and Mindy and Jasmine walked each other away from the upcoming battle.

"Hahaha, are you kidding? We're the best Tag Team Duelist in the league." Grace responded with a scowl, "Your odds of winning are about the same as your odds of getting a good boyfriend. Like, what's with that bow in your hair? Are you ten?" she said before sneering, "Or are those the type of guys you want to attract?"

"At least that one has some semblance of composure." Gloria said before looking at Yang, "This one looks like a blond bimbo all the boys are scared of because she's a ball buster."

"Bite me bitch," Yang said as she extended her arm, causing the duel blades to fold out, "Do you want to trash talk or duel?"

"Oh, there's gonna be plenty of time for both," Grace said as she and her sister readier their energy duel disks.

"Duel!" All four said as the tag team match had begun.

Blake and Yang: 4000 Life Points

The Tyler Sisters: 4000 Life Points

"I'll make the first move," Blake said as she drew, "I play Polymerization fusing my Lunalight Wolf and Yellow Marten to make Lunalight Cat Dancer!" She said as the swirling vortex appeared behind her with the masked feline dancer emerging with her daggers at the ready, (2400 ATK / 2000 DEF).

"Looks like the kitty has claws," Gloria commented.

"Rawr," Grace playfully growled with a smirk.

"I use Yellow Marten's effect. Since she was sent to the graveyard by a card effect, I can add Lunalight Fusion from my deck to my hand." Blake said before adding the card, then took a different one out of her hand, "Now I set one card and end my turn."

"No double fusion, sadage." Grace commented with a pout.

"It's my turn," Grace said as she drew, then showed two cards, "I reveal an Amazoness monster from my hand to special summons Amazoness Spy." She said as a shrouded warrioress was summoned to the field, (800 ATK / 1200 DEF). "However, I'll tribute her for the monster I revealed, Amazoness Queen!" she said as the spy faded, replaced with a blue-haired warrioress with an eyepatch and massive blade, (2400 ATK / 1800 DEF). "Now, attack her Cat Dancer." She said with Amazoness Queen rushing in with an overhead swing.

"But they're gonna destroy each other." Yang commended.

"Nope, Amazoness Queen makes it so all Amazoness monsters cannot be destroyed by battle," Gloria commented.

"Time to take out all your nine lives," Grace said as the Queen's Blade collided with Cat Dancer's daggers. However, both monsters pushed back with neither fading from the field, "Hey, what gives?"

"Cat Dancer cannot be destroyed by battle." Blake responded, with a smirk, "You'll have to do more than that if you want to take any of my lives."

"I see, at least you aren't making this boring." Gloria responded, "I end with two cards face down."

"My move," Yang said as she drew, then smirked, "I play Fire Formation – Tenki," She said as a continuous spell was seen, "This card lets me add a beast-warrior from my deck to my hand. And I pick Caninetaur." The fiery Ra Yellow said before she summoned the dog centaur in attack mode, (1500 ATK / 200 DEF). "And thanks to Tenki, all beast-warriors gain 100 more attack points." She as her monster gained a burning aura, (1500 + 100 = 1600 ATK). As well as Cat Dancer, (2400 + 100 = 2500 ATK). "Now Cat Dancer attacks your Queen." The masked feline then dashed in as Amazoness Queen readied her sword.

"Looks like my comment about your lack of brains was right." Gloria responded, "I reveal my trap card Amazoness Archers." She said as a team of five archers stood with arrows at the ready, "This will lower your monster's attack by 500, meaning that little boost did nothing."

"I don't think so," Blake said, "I reveal my face down, Trap Jammer. Negating your Archers."

"What!?" Gloria responded in shock as her trap shattered and the Amazoness Archers faded. The attack continued as Amazoness Queen blocked the dagger rush. However, Cat Dancer jumped back while tossing one of her knives, cutting the spunky twin in the process.

"When Cat Dancer attacks, you also lose 100 life points," Blake added.

The Tyler Sisters: 4000 – 100 – 100 = 3800 Life Points

"I'll end with one card face down," Yang said as she concluded her turn.

"These two are starting to piss me off," Gloria spoke through her teeth.

"Chillax Sis, we're just getting started." Grace said as she drew, "And it's my turn, I summon Amazoness Tiger." She said as an orange tiger with black stripes and a scar over his right eye appeared, (1100 ATK / 1500 DEF). "And my tiger gains 400 attack points for each Amazoness monster on the field. How's that for a boost?" she said as Tiger roared with a red aura, (1100 + 800 = 1900 ATK). "But I'm not done yet, I need to give my kitty a collar. I play the equip spell Amazoness Heirloom." She said as a green pendant appeared around Tiger's neck, "And finally, I play Amazoness Fighting Spirit." The snide twin said as the Amazoness monster on the field gained a yellow aura, "Unlike your little flame, this continuous spell gives a much bigger increase. 1000 points when an Amazoness attacks a stronger monster. So go Tiger and claw the Cat Dancer to pieces." She said as her beast pounced with the aura magnifying, (1900 + 1000 = 2900 ATK).

"You shouldn't underestimate my gains," Yang responded, "I reveal my trap card, Skill Successor. Now, I can give Cat Dancer 400 more attack points to match your Tiger." She said with the masked feline gained a massive red aura, (2500 + 400 = 2900 ATK). Cat Dancer then blocked the fangs of Tiger with her daggers, "How do you like that-" Yang was saying until Tiger slashed Cat Dancer across the stomach, causing it to explode, "…Eh?"

"Oh, did I forget to mention that Amazoness Heirloom makes it so the attacked monster is destroyed after damage calculation?" Grace said, "My bad, but it also protects her from destruction, even though the Queen has that covered." She said before pointing, "Speaking of which, Amazoness Queen attacks your creepy dog!"

As the Queen rushed in with its blade at the ready, "I use Caninetaur effect to send Fire King Avatar Yaksha to the gave to boost its attack by 400." Yang called out as her monster's aura grew slightly bigger before clashing swords with the queen, (1600 + 400 = 2000 ATK). However, the sword cracked as the Queen slashed through, resulting in an explosion. The Queen jumped back as the Tiger's aura from fighting spirit faded, (2900 – 1000 = 1900 ATK).

Blake and Yang: 4000 – 400 = 3600 Life Points

"Seriously, that's all the boosts you could muster," Grace said as she crossed her arms, "But I shouldn't have expected much from a top-heavy twat like yourself."

"What did you just call me!?" Yang shouted with her eyes red, "Say that again, I dare you!"

"This one thinks she's hot stuff," Gloria spoke with a smirk, "But knowing her, she'll grow up with only one part of her burning." She said with Yang's rage seething, her teeth grinding, and eyes almost bloodshot.

"Yang, calm down." Blake said in a worried voice, then turned back to the match, "I draw," Blake said as she put the card in her hand, then took out a new one, "I activate Re-Fusion. By paying 800 life points, I get back my Cat Dancer." She said as the masked feline returned to the field, with the power of Tenki, (2400 ATK / 2000 DEF). she gained the boost again, (2400 + 100 = 2500 ATK).

Blake and Yang: 3600 – 800 = 2800 Life Points

"Now, attack Tiger!" Blake called out with Cat Dancer rushing in, "Your spell does give a boost, but only when you're the one attacking." She said with the masked feline slashing Tiger before jumping back to throw a dagger at Grace, "I end with one card face down."

"Nice one," Yang said with a smile.

The Tyler Sisters: 3800 – 600 – 100 = 3100 Life Points

"Someone needs to declaw this cat." Gloria spoke as she drew, and smiled at the result, "And I think I know the just the way to do it. I summon Amazoness Swords Woman in attack mode." She said as red-haired warrioress was summoned with a long blade in hand, (1500 ATK / 1600 DEF).

"And with another Amazoness on the field, Tiger gains even more attack points." Grace added as Tiger's aura grew, (1900 + 400 = 2300 ATK). "Time for a repeat of last time!" she said with Tiger pounding again but was then shocked as the beast was bound by chains, "What gives now?"

"My face down, Kunai with Chain." Blake spoke, "This card lets me change your monster that declared the attack into defense mode." She said as Cat Dancer held the other end of the weapon, "As well as give equip to my monster with 500 more attack points." With that, the masked feline smirked, (2500 + 500 = 3000 ATK).

"And since your attack never went off," Yang added on, "Heirloom doesn't do anything."

"Tsk, lame," Grace spoke.

"It's okay, this just means we can play with them a bit longer," Gloria said before pointing, "Amazoness Queen, attack Cat Dancer." She said as her Queen rushed in for a sword slash, and gained the boost of fighting spirit, (2400 + 1000 = 3400 ATK). The masked feline parried with her kunai, but the recoil of the damage hit Blake and Yang.

Blake and Yang: 2800 – 400 = 2400 Life Points

"Now Amazoness Swords Woman attacks," Gloria said as her Cat Dancer gasped at the second blade rush, this monster also gaining a boost in power, (1500 + 1000 = 2500 ATK).

"But that's still weaker," Yang commented.

"Yes, but Swords Woman makes it so you take all the damage we would have from the battle," Gloria said as the sword clashed with the kunai again, but the shockwave hit Blake and Yang, pushing both to their knees.

Blake and Yang: 2400 – 500 = 1900 Life Points

"I'll end with one card face down." Gloria spoke, "Or can you two even stand back up?" Queen then lost her aura boost, (3400 – 1000 = 2400 ATK). Followed by Swords Woman, (2500 – 1000 = 1500 ATK).

"Girls like you should get used to being on your knees." Grace said with both Blake and Yang scowling at her, "So, you want to play some more?"

"I'm done playing around." Yang said as she stood up, "I draw." She said before smiling at the result, "First, I destroy two cards in my hand." The fiery Ra Yellow said as her Hazy Flame Griffin and Bonfire Colossus were detonated, "So I can special summon True King Agnimazud, the Vanisher!" she said as the red and white wyrm appeared onto the field, (2900 ATK / 1900 DEF). "Now, I can banish one of your monsters, and I pick your Amazoness Tiger."

"Not gonna happen, I have a trap card." Gloria responded, "I activate Amazoness Shamanism. It will destroy all our Amazoness monsters, and we can special summon the same number back in defense mode. But only level four and lower ones." At that moment, Swords Woman, Tiger, and Queen exploded. However, only Swords Woman and Tiger were seen in defensive stances, and the heirloom was also gone. Replaced by the Queen was the Amazoness Spy in a knelt stance, (800 ATK / 1200 DEF). "But don't worry, I reveal my Amazoness Willpower to bring her back in attack mode." She said as the Queen reappeared with her sword at the ready, (2400 ATK / 1800 DEF).

"And that makes four Amazoness monsters on the field." Grace commented as Tiger gained a stronger aura, (1100 + 1600 = 2700 ATK).

"We can still hit you for a lot of damage." Yang said before pointing, "Agnimazud and Cat Dancer can attack your Amazoness Queen." She said with both mothers unleashing their power. However, Tiger leaped in front of the way of both assaults, "What?"

"Tiger also prevents you from attacking any other Amazoness monster." Grace spoke, "Not like we needed to mention that earlier."

"And Queen prevents her destruction." Gloria added, "With Tiger in defense mode, we took no damage and lost no monsters."

"Well, your dancer did do another 100 points with that attack." Grace commented, "So, good job doing next to nothing."

The Tyler Sisters: 3100 – 100 = 3000 Life Points

"Grr," Yang snarled before sighing, "I set one card and end my turn."

"It's mine then!" Grace said as she drew, snickering at the result, "This is going to be good. I play my Polymerization." She said with the swirling vortex appearing behind her, "With my Amazoness Tiger and Spy, I fusion summon," the snide twin said as she clasped her hands, "Amazoness Pet Liger!" she said with a more muscular and armored beast was seen on the field, (2500 ATK / 2400 DEF). "But why stop there? I play Fusion Recovery to add Polymerization and Tiger back to my hand." Grace said before she clasped her hands again, "Now I Fuse my Tiger and Pet Liger to make Amazoness King Liger!" she said as an even more fearsome beast roared onto the battlefield, (2900 ATK / 2800 DEF).

"If my math is right, we should have enough damage now to wipe their life points." Gloria spoke, "You ready to end this?"

"Totes," Grace said before pointing, "Amazoness Queen, takeout that Vanisher!" she said as the queen rushed in, gaining the aura of the fighting spirit, (2400 + 1000 = 3400 ATK). She slashes Agnimazud across the chest, causing it to explode.

Blake and Yang: 1900 – 500 = 1400 Life Points

"Now, Swords Woman attacks your Cat Dancer," Gloria said the bladed warrioress rushed with her weapon and a boost from Fighting Spirit, (1500 + 1000 = 2500 ATK). The masked feline parried with her kunai again. However, the damage was reflected onto Blake and Yang.

Blake and Yang: 1400 – 500 = 900 Life Points

"And now, the final move. King Liger, dices this kitty's last life!" Grace pointed as her fusion beast rushed into battle with its claws at the ready, gaining a boost from Fighting Spirit as well, (2900 + 1000 = 3900 ATK).

"It's not over yet," Yang called out, "I reveal my facedown card, Raising Energy." Yang said as she took the last card in her hand, "By discarding one card, I can give Cat Dancer 1500 more attack points." She said with the masked feline gaining a massive red aura, (3000 + 1500 = 4500 ATK). Cat Dancer then swatted King Liger away with her Kunai, causing the Amazoness king beast to skid on the ground.

The Tyler Sisters: 3000 – 600 = 2400 Life Points

"No way, they repelled to my King Liger?" Grace said in shock, "Why did she wait until now to activate that?"

"If she had, then Swords Woman would have wiped out their life points much sooner." Gloria said with a smirk, "Perhaps she does have a brain in there. At least, a tiny one."

"Tsk, whatever." Grace said as she took the two cards left in her hand, "I'll set these and end my turn." As she did so, all monsters' attack points returned to normal. Frist was Amazoness Queen, (3400 – 1000 = 2400 ATK). Then was Swords Woman, (2500 – 1000 = 1500 ATK). Then King Liger, (3900 – 1000 = 2900 ATK). And finally, Cat Dancer, (4500 – 1500 = 3000 ATK).

"These two are something else," Yang said before looking at Blake, "Sorry, but I'm out of ideas and cards. It's up now."

"We're still in this together, and we're gonna win together." Blake said with a smile, casing Yang to respond in kind, "I draw!" she said before playing the card, "I activate Pot of Greed to gain two more cards." She said before smiling at the results, "Now, I play Lunalight Fusion."

"That's the card she added at the start of the duel." Grace commented, "What two monsters are you going to fuse?"

"Not two monsters, three." Blake responded, "You see, since you have a fusion monster on your field, I can use a monster in my extra deck as material. So, I fuse my Lunalight Tiger in hand, Cat Dancer on the field, and Panther dancer in my deck." She said as the vortex appeared behind her, "To create Lunalight Leo Dancer!" the shadowy Obelisk Blue said as the prideful Lunalight entered the field, reposing her sword, (3500 ATK / 3000 DEF).

"Don't forget, thanks to Tenki, she gains 100 more attack points." Yang said as she took a card out of her graveyard, "And we can remove Skill Successor, so she gains 800 more." She said as Leo gained a red aura again, (3500 + 100 + 800 = 4400 ATK).

"Leo Dancer, attack with Semilunar Slasher!" Blake called out with the prideful Lunalight rushing in for a sword slash. However, King Liger intercepted the attack, catching the sword with its teeth.

"Like Tiger, King Liger makes sure it is your only attack target." Grace said before she pressed a button on her duel disk, "And I activate Amazoness Hot Spring. Once per turn, if we take battle damage with an Amazoness on the field, we recover it right back." she said as Leo Dancer shock off King Liger.

The Tyler Sisters: 2400 – 1500 + 1500 = 2400 Life Points

"We aren't finished attacking yet, but all your Amazoness monsters are." Blake said as she pointed, "Thanks to Leo Dancer, all your special summoned monsters are destroyed!"

"What!?" The Tyler Sisters said at the same time before seeing Queen, Swords Woman, and King Liger scream in pain before they exploded. In the back row, the Willpower trap card also detonated.

"And the last thing, Leo can make a second attack now." Blake said before pointing, "It's over!" She said as Leo rushed with for one final sword swing. Blake and Yang smiled at thought of winning. However, they gasped as Leo dancer was pushed back. The prideful Lunalight has locked swords with Amazoness Queen, "How!? She was destroyed?"

"Yeah, she was tribute summoned before, but was brought back from the grave with that Willpower trap." Yang said before more of the smoke cleared, revealing something they did not realize, "Huh, but Willpower was destroyed as well, wasn't it?"

"Yes, one was one I set before and activated first," Gloria spoke.

"This was the one I set the last turn and activated now." Grace said, "Come on, we play the same archetype, so we have the same support cards."

"Your attack did do some damage, but our Queen is still standing," Gloria said as her monster pushed back Leo Dancer.

The Tyler Sisters: 2400 – 2000 = 400 Life Points

"I've never seen anyone fight back against Leo Dancer like that." Blake responded, looking at her hand, "Tsk, I set one card and play the continuous spell, Spiritual Forest. Then, that's it." Blake ended her turn with Leo's aura from Skills Successor fading, (4400 – 800 = 3600 ATK).

"I draw," Gloria said as she drew the card and smirked, putting it in her hand to get another card, "As my sister said, we play a lot of the same cards. So, I play Fusion Recovery to add Amazoness Spy and Polymerization back to my hand. Now, with her and my Amazoness Queen," She said before clasping her hands together, "I fusion summon, Amazoness Empress!" she said as a white-haired warrioress with a fanged sword appeared, (2800 ATK / 2400 DEF). "And unlike you, I'm far from over. You showed us your archetype's fusion card." The spunky twin said with a serious gaze, "I'll show you ours, Amazoness Secret Technique! I can now fuse the Amazoness Empress with the Amazoness Fighter in my hand," Gloria said while clasping her hands together, "To create Amazoness Kaiserin!" appearing in the place of the empress was another white-haired warrioress. However, this one's body was that of pure muscle and war paint. She wielded a steel sword capable of slaying a dragon, with fang-like spikes on the other end of the blade, (3200 ATK / 2800 DEF). Kaiserin stabbed the ground with her sword before pointing at Leo Dancer, causing the prideful Lunalight to respond with a glare as she reposed her blade.

"Not only is she a powerhouse, but you can only target her with card effects, and she is unable to be destroyed by them," Grace commented.

"It's still weaker than Blake's boss monster," Yang responded.

"And that's what Fighting Spirit is for," Gloria said before pointing, "Go, attack with Curved Fang Ripper!" Kaiserin picked up her blade and rushed in, the ground warping with her charge. Leo Dancer dashed in as well, causing the two warrior's weapons to crash before the ultimate Amazoness gained the yellow aura, (3200 + 1000 = 4200 ATK).

"Thanks to Spiritual Forest, the first time my beast-warrior would be destroyed, they are not," Blake spoke.

"But you still take the damage," Grace said as Kaisen then pushed Leo Dancer back before landing and erupting slashing. Blake and Yang were all thrown back from the assault, while Leo Dancer skidded on her side, dropping her sword.

Blake and Yang: 900 – 600 = 300 Life Points

"And because I use Empress in the fusion summon, Kaiserin can make a second attack!" Gloria said as the ultimate Amazoness jumped into the air for a final downward slash, "Time to end this-what?" she said as Kaiserin was held in the air by an ominous wind.

"We had one last facedown," Blake said as Yang helped her up, "Lost Winds."

"But Kaiserin can't be destroyed by card effects," Grace responded in shock.

"It doesn't destroy your monster," Yang said with a smirk, "Just cuts its original attack points in half!" she said with the Tyler sisters gasping, seeing their monster's power weaken, (4200 – 1600 = 2600 ATK). In seeing an opportunity, Leo Dancer picked up her sword before jumping towards her opponent with a horizontal slash. Kaiserin pushed through the wind to clash blades with the prideful Lunalight, letting out a furious battle cry. Shockwaves of the collision rung throughout the forest, but the ultimate Amazoness' sword started to crack. Leo Dancer roared as she broke through the blade, slashing Kaiserin across the stomach. The Tyler Sisters watched in shock as their boss monster exploded. Leo Dancer landed on her feet with the pieces of the blade falling beside her. She let out a sigh, as the match was over, and she faded away.

The Tyler Sisters: 400 – 1000 = 0 Life Points

"We lost," Gloria said she fell to one knee.

"This is so lame; how could we lose to a couple of newbies." Grace said as she was on her knees as well. she then looked over to see Yang and Blake walking over, "What, here to rub it in more?" However, the snide twin saw the fiery Ra Yellow extend her right hand to her.

"The duel's over," Yang said with a smile, "And you two were really strong." Grace had a look of shock before accepting the help.

"We don't want any more conflict on this island," Blake said as she helped Gloria up, "Please, be respective for the remainder of your time here." She said before having a focused gaze, "Or we will be forced to duel you again." The shadowy Obelisk Blue said while Yang hit her fist together.

"…Fine, we'll play nice now." Gloria said with a smirk, "Neither of you better go losing until the very end." She said before walking away, "Or that rematch might be coming sooner than you think."

"Yeah, you think we done," Grace said with a smile, "But nothing stops the Tyler Sisters." She said before waving with a wink, "Bye-bye." She then ran up to her sister, hugging her as they walked away.

"Wow, they changed tones real quick." Yang commented, "Still, at least they took the loss well."

"Yes," Blake responded, "By the way, what was it you wanted to say before?"

"Oh, right," Yang said as she ejected the spell from her duel disk arm, "I wanted to give you this card for your deck."

"Fire Formation – Tenki?" Blake read before looking back to Yang, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah, it affects beast-warriors as support, but I only have a few in my deck." Yang responded, "But that's all you run, so it will help you more than me." She said before smiling, "And there's no rule that says I can't give a card to a friend."

"Thank you, Yang." Blake responded with a matching smile, "I feel like I should trade you something for this."

"Don't worry about it," Yang said as she looked at her other cards, "I could also give you Caninetaur, he can help set up your grave-"

"I'm good," Blake said with half-open eyes, "I'm not running a dog card."

"Suit yourself," Yang said as she put her deck away, then extend her right hand in a fist, "See you around?"

"Yeah," Blake said with a smile reforming, and she hit her friend's fist with her own. The two then walked their separate ways as they continued to search the island.

AN: There you go, a battle of buff women and cats against buff cat-women. I liked having a lot of clashes and fights here, without having most monsters go to the grave right away, it lets each monster build up a rivalry. But even the Tyler Sister could not stop the Bumblebee combo. Despite all the negative words said during the duel, these characters at least acknowledge and respect one another as worthy opponents. Yang even gives Blake a nice support card to help her deck get even stronger. Also got to see Mindy and Jasmine here, which was nice as a small cameo. Overall, I think that was the last tag duel in this tournament, but you will see more than just one-on-one matches in the future. That is all for now, thanks for reading, and hope to see you in the next chapter.

Now, time to answer some questions. If I could fuse two of Jaden's heroes, I would want Avian and Sparkman to make Elemental Hero Shockwave. I liked how the vanilla ones worked and think it would be cool if these two had a combo. The effect would be that you can discard to cut a monster's attack points in half and burn the opponent for the same amount, but this hero would only have like 1700 attack points max for balance reasons. It references other hero effects and is kind of works a more of support hero for others to beat over a boss monster. Again, I don't make custom cards because effects that might not seem broken to me are a lot more exploitable to others. It is why I do not use anything outside of certain anime or pre-changed card effects. Those were all the questions I had, feel free to ask more, and I will answer them in the next chapter.
